CDRipper - Java project to rip and encode CDs

Setup

It contains two command line programs.

One to rip a music CD, pulling music info from CDDB.

The other encodes the CD to a variety of formats (currently FLAC, Apple Lossless, mp3 and ogg). Encoding is done in parallel to speed things up.

All ripping and encoding is done by executing binaries:
